OUR FOUNDER | ARTIST
RUA FRANCIS OSHANA
Welcome to my canvas. I’m Rua, mom to two beautiful humans, an entrepreneur, plants chef, educator & a passionate advocate of food as art & medicine. From medical school to fleeing war in Iraq, my journey started in preventative health and nutritional counseling in Canada, then transitioned into marketing as I relocated to the US. What started as a necessary solution to my son’s-dairy allergy, quickly sparked a conscious exploration to create pure and dairy-free cheese & dessert alternatives for my family. Planthropie was born & quickly transformed into our flagship home in 2020 offering living plant based cheese and dessert. Planthropie bridges my background in medicine, ancient wisdom, science & artistry.
My mission is to showcase the beauty and wholeness of food, to create phenomenal alternatives to traditional cheese and dessert without compromising ingredients, health, flavor and experience. At Planthropie, we’re breaking through old paradigms and birthing a new breed of living cheese and dessert that are kind to your mind, body and soul.
